I got the impression it may have been the “draft” for the book.

Entertaining but limited in the value it can give you for tips etc in isolation from other resources. Having said that the resource covers just one of many to form…[Read more]

Up here in Qld this value is shown on your rate bill. Drag your rate bill out of the cupbord it may be on there.

Positive geared property unless wrapped/optioned etc is reliant on acceptable rental income being maintained to meet at least the 11 sec rule if not more.

Do not want to generalise. Apply the rules of supply and demand to ensure that your property can withstand shocks to the market.

To explain, if you are in Brisbane CBD, look at the cranes…..what are they building…….apartments. Now think about who buys apartments…… people who work in the…[Read more]

Obviously there is no conveyancing company or real-estate agent involved as you would think they would pick it up. Sounds dangerous to me as the banks would not view it favourably.
